1. They feign advice for him, though Allah knows
That they are but envious foes

2. They named you "mercy" auspiciously
But oh my misery, none of my hopes in you came to be

3. Pitying a heart that melts with love
Though its passion in life only grows

4. Oh mercy, is there any mercy in your heart
For an ardent lover made desolate by your estrangement
